don't raise the deficit. don't raise taxes on the middle class. and don't lower the share of income that is born by the high income earners. keep saying this $5 trillion plan, i suppose, it's been discredited by six other studies and even their own deputy campaign manager acknowledged that it wasn't correct. >> let's talk about this 20%. you have refused, and, again, to offer specifics on how you pay for that 20% across the board tax cut. do you actually have the specifics or are you still working on it and that's why you won't tell voters? >> different than this administration, we actually want to have big bipartisan agreements. you see, i understand -- >> do you have the specifics? do you have the -- know exactly what you're doing? >> look at what ronald reagan and tip o'neill did. they worked together out of a framework to lower tax rates and broaden the base and worked together to fix that. what we're saying is, here's our framework. lower tax rates 20%. we raise about $1.2 trillion through income taxes. we forego about $1.1 trillion in loopho
